You are a tease!

Wow! Enjoy the carnival. Now we can all be on pins and needles for the rest of the evening! Just kidding. If we feel like this, I can only imagine what you and your family is feeling.

sounds VERY exciting and clear

that he's been getting good medical care from the hospital. I have to think at least a baby that does not end up going home (even for a short time) with the parenst (if they're using) is better off staying with nurses and getting fed, etc. 11 pounds! Good chunky monkey!

Do they give you any feedback on his family? Are they out of picture that you know of yet?

Hooray!

I'm so glad that you finally got to meet him!

I've always liked the name Amaru for a boy. After Tupac Amaru (not Tupac Amaru Shakur), the last Incan king who resisted the Spanish invasion in the 1500s.

I have had to force myself to LOG OUT

just so that I could get some work done. I have had to set times for how long I had to wait before logging on again. and it is so good to get the update! so happy for you gigi!

Any good bear names that you could use? Smile

names

There may be a bear reference to all this that I'm completely unaware of, but I can't help wondering if you meant bird names because of Gigi's omens. How about Raven, or Sparrow. Maybe Sparrow will become a popular boy's name because of Cap't Jack Sparrow? Racking my brains to think of more, and quickly rejecting Hawk, Crow and Titmouse.
Good luck Gigi, I'm so happy for you that it seems to be going ahead.
EDIT: Oh, I hadn't read Gigi's post with the bear pic when I wrote this! I still think I like the idea of bird names better though.

So excited for you!

Thanks for the quick update. I feel like I've been rushing things to get back to the computer to see what's going on. The suspense. I'm so happy you were finally able to meet him. He sounds so sweet! I'll be thinking about names all night. Did you know my son's name is Luck? (Hence my online name.) You've been getting so many "Good Luck's" during this whole process, maybe you could use it too.Smile

Yah!!! Yippie!!!

Wow! That is awesome news. I'm so glad you got to see him and hold him. There is nothing better than cuddling a chunky little two month old. My picks for boy names are Heron, Micah, Finn, and Budd (for a spring baby Smile ).
